Story summary

A groundbreaking study from the University of Texas at El Paso reveals that pairing neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) with resistance training (RT) dramatically boosts muscle strength and mass. Analyzing 13 studies, researchers found that this powerful combination yields superior results, especially after eight weeks. Future investigations will explore the role of diet in these gains.
